Story of the elevator

Don't build your own elevator late at night

By wwwwwPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

Jing works on the 15th floor of the building and takes the elevator every day. The lower 13 floors of the building are used for living, and the elevator leads directly to the 14th floor and above. The floors below don't stop.

The elevator uses the building's own generator, so there has never been an elevator power failure or stuck in the elevator, but Jing Xiuer always felt uneasy, so that day happened to let her unexpected things.

It was Monday morning. Jing Xiuer overslept and arrived late. She waited on the first floor for a few minutes and rushed into the elevator as soon as it arrived.

Because it is office hours, usually quite crowded elevator has no people in use, even Jingxiu er, only three people, the other two, a mother and daughter.

Jing Xiuer looked at them unconsciously. They were two strangers. The mother wore a large flowered coat common in winter, and the daughter wore a pigtail.

Jing Xiu 'er is usually a warm-hearted person, could not help but ask, are you looking for the residents of this building.

Yes, the mother replied.

You're in the wrong elevator. Xiu 'er laughed. It's an office elevator. But it doesn't matter. When I get off, you can sit on the first floor and go through the south door.

Thank you, you are so nice, the woman laughed, and then said to the little girl beside her, Po, called auntie.

Aunt, the girl's eyes flicker, a lovely face, suddenly, the elevator lights flashed a few times, and then out. Xiu 'er heard a thud and cried ominously. The elevator is out of power! She clearly remembered the location of the alarm button. She touched it with her fingers and pressed it hard without any reaction. A Bao, you don't be afraid, uncle will come to save us in a moment, OK? It is the mother in comfort around the girl, not good, once said, the girl suddenly whine hum up, like a lost kitten.

Mom, I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I'm cold...

Su 'er's eyes had not adjusted to the darkness, so she followed the sound to pick up the child. The empty Su 'er touched the elevator once, but there was nothing there. Where are you? She asked in horror, Mom, how come Uncle still?

Where are you? Xiu 'er's voice is starting to shake...

"Wow" suddenly in front of the door opened, a light broke through Jing Xiuer's eyes.

Hello? There we are, shouted Sule. The elevator stops between the thirteenth and fourteenth floor. The people outside forcefully pulled Jing out. Su 'er fell to the ground and gasped, "There are still people inside." No, ma 'am. In the midst of the commotion, someone assured him that it was impossible. There was still a mother and daughter in there. She struggled to her feet and flashed her flashlight inside. Nothing. In a rare accident, Xiu's heart brake cooled to freezing point. The generator suddenly failed, causing the elevator to lose power.

Oh, miss you this is what ah. Fortunately, it's a weekday, and you'll soon be rescued, a security guard nearby told her. Do you understand that two years ago, a mother and daughter came to visit their relatives during the 11th and seventh day holiday. Because they took the wrong elevator, and the generator happened to have an accident, they were trapped inside. And when they got to work, they were both starving... As the security guard kept saying, he did not notice that her face was as white as a sheet of paper.

PS: Since then, every time there has been an elevator accident in the building and the power has gone out, according to the person involved, I have seen a mother and daughter.een an elevator accident in the building and the power has gone out, according to the person involved, I have seen a mother and daughter.
